To lift a trailer, only use one set of mobile column lifts at the rear. Support the front of the trailer by extending the support legs of
the trailer itself.

LEVELLING THE MOBILE COLUMN LIFTS
NOTICE
Minor disparities in the levelling of the mobile column lift will result in a skewed position of the vehicle on the lift forks. This
may cause the body to hit against the top of the lift columns or lift shafts and may result in damage to the vehicle and / or lift
columns.
The DH-AB* are designed to LIFT / LOWER principally level through the full stroke of the lift cylinders. If this is not the case,
and disparities cannot be solved by means of the instructions in this section, contact DHOLLANDIA for further advice. See
contact info on page 3.
WARNING
NEVER exceed the maximum rated capacity of the mobile column lifts (check the max. rated capacity decal).
NEVER exceed the maximum load of the trailer support legs (check the max. rated capacity decal).
Overloading the mobile column lift or the trailer support legs can put the operator and bystanders at great risk of serious bodily
injury or death, as well as property damage to the mobile column lift and the vehicle.
DHOLLANDIA disclaims liability for all personal bodily injury and / or property damage that results from overloading practices.
WARNING
Major disparities in the levelling of a single mobile column lift or deviating levelling of multiple mobile column lifts can cause the
vehicle and the lift columns to tip-over. This will put the operator and bystanders at great risk of serious bodily injury or death,
and will cause major property damage to the vehicle and / or mobile column lifts.
To avoid these risks:
before operation, ALWAYS verify and make sure that the lift shaft / lift forks of the master and slave columns are level (this is,
at equal distance from the ground) and go up and down in a synchronised way.
Keep visual control over the entire working area of the mobile column lift; its lift forks and the vehicle at all times, including the
area DIRECTLY AROUND and UNDER the lift and vehicle.
DO NOT allow any other person to stand in the proximity of the mobile column lift and the vehicle. ENSURE AT ALL TIMES
THAT NOBODY STANDS UNDER OR WITHIN REACH OF THE MOVING LIFT FORKS AND THE VEHICLE as long as the
safety locks are not engaged.
